I think some of you are overrating Griffith a bit. Here is why; he was pulled on short yardage situations for Fred McCrary. As an inline blocker he just isn't that good. He makes up for it in his versatility. His assignment was not blowing up Linebackers up front, rather taking on Safeties and Corners in space. He's a nice signing, especially since Knapp will utilize him correctly. If you expect him to plow through the middle, this isn't your guy.

Wow....after the contract the Falcons gave to that dude from the Ravens, iw as expecting Griffith to get a monster deal. 3 years 3.8 million, that's the same contract Mack Strong got last offseason...amazing.

Actually Shiver in a lot of short yardage he was the RB and McCrary was the FB so he was in the game. The problem is Knapp likes to call passes in short yardage for some reason.
